The Ferrari F1 driver wrote on his Instagram account, "That’s a wrap on testing. It’s inspiring to watch a team pull out all the stops to build a car. It’s the most fascinating part of this job for me."
He went on to wrote, "Everything is built from scratch and designed and redesigned over and over. And then there are only a few of us who get to put that machine to the test."
"I’m re-set and refreshed. I’m not going anywhere, so stick with me. For a moment, I forgot who I was, but thanks to you and your support you’re not going to see that mindset again," the 41-year-old added.
The 2026 F1 season is set to begin on March 8 with the Australian Grand Prix.
